Bill Simmons, Propeller Head

by Coltrane

Bill Simmons has signed on to baseball’s stat-head revolution.   Here’s a fun article that discusses some of the more popular sabermetric work.  The piece is a friendly way to introduce stuff that can be fairly intimidating.  Stuff like OPS, VORP, WAR, FIP, UZR, and BABIP.   Simmons is always entertaining, read it and be informed.
